I really thought the oink-moo was coming from graham until they talked about it being an ingame effect.

Strife2GFAQs:Keithgriff (the scholar) was voiced by Richard Epcar (Batou in Ghost in the Shell). Needless to say, the game is badass just cause he's in it. I did just use Atelier and badass in the same sentence.

I'm beginning to think that Koei has made one of these Atelier games every year for the last 25 years or something. This is getting ridiculous, WHO IS BUYING THESE!!!

J/K Everyone knows the Japanese are buying these. Who else buys a bunch of similar, boring games about young girls who are inexplicably good at something no one cares about in reality but in the game is basically a super-power.

...I'm sorry. I can't stand some of the English dubbing done for JRPGs, and the girl here was definitely one case where I wanted to hit her on the head just to get her to stop talking. I don't think that's quite the impression she's supposed to give.

I love the Atelier games myself, though I only played the ones on the PS2. And how is skills in alchemy something no one would care about? I made created things in those games ranging from simple food items to support items for battle to armor and weapons to fricking bombs. And it's nice to have Atelier's light hearted nature to balance out all the JRPG "OH GOD DIRE AND DARK WHOLE WORLDS GONNA BE DESTROYED ANGSSSSSTTTTTTT!!!!!!!

I kinda miss having a male protagonist though. Every single current console Atelier game has been a cutesy female lead. Newest Atelier game coming out is supposed to split between a male and a female lead, and letting the player choose which protagonist they want to go through the story as. It's similar to Atelier Iris 2, and it's nice they're going back to it.

Fricken Atelier. They look sooooo cheesy and soooooo low-budget (especially this one with the lip syncing) and yet I still want to try playing some of them.

I honestly hadn't been keeping up with Unskippable, but when I saw this was Atelier, I had to go see it. I wonder if the LRR guys will do two more parts to this (like they did with Meruru) or if they're done with this one cutscene.

I'm sure they can make two minutes of a static image interesting. ... If they don't end up killing themselves.
